Oh, aye. The only person I can talk about it with is the person I saw it with. And we were literally checking around to make sure no one was in earshot before talking about it

Shorter makes sense. Some of them have felt ridiculously rushed

Just got back from Bond. Really can't say much but I did enjoy it. Possibly even my favourite Daniel Craig era film. Maybe tied with Casino Royale. For reference I enjoyed Casino Royale, thought Quantum of Solace was a pile of shit (like everyone else), fell asleep during Skyfall in the cinema, which I think is a fairly damning review. I do appreciate I'm in a minority on that score. And quite enjoyed Spectre even though it was a bit daft.

Well yes, that's what I mean when I say always. Superhumans, technological wonders and literal gods. Twatting each other. I enjoy the MCU. But I do find my attention drifting for the later parts of the films

Didn't mind that one. Why does it always just seem to end up with them twatting each other?

Fucking hell. I though my local was bad (only 3 of it's 5 screens open at the moment and showing 6times a day

Half Man Half Biscuit Not comedy musicians like the Concorde but damn funny lyrics. And clever. And poignant. And moving.

I'm quite enjoying Vigil. Don't get me wrong, it's not good. It's very silly but takes itself very seriously which can be a delicious combination at times. If it had a longer run I'd have given up but I can ride out the 6 episodes to what will surely be an infuriating ending.

That'd be a lot in the middle of Countdown

Watched it now and yes, I think you could be right

possibly, don't remember. I know when it first moved to C4 they showed the normal version on a Thursday then the kid friendly version over the weekend sometime on E4. I think now they just put it online

A mistake apparently. 'They do a bleeped version so kids can watch

Ha! Just got back from a gig so not watched yet, but saw mention earlier of the worst task attempt in Taskmaster history so guessing it's that

And just the shit they have to deal with generally...

Would the VAT be payed this way, or would it be based on when the festival takes place?

The headline doesn't mention the 100k cash and the empty bags which are probably of more interest to the police.

When it comes to masks I'm very much of the opinion that you should do what makes you feel safer and more comfortable and if that means wearing a mask in a setting that others might not feel necessary then that's a personal call and that's fine. Having said that, the couple I saw in a rowing boat in the middle of Lake Windermere probably didn't need their masks today.

Succession has finally got a release date October 18th Can't wait

My reaction to reading the story about us running out of electricity was just 'well, obviously'

I mean at this point, why not?

Gove to the Ministry of Sound (would love to take credit for that, but have to own up, I did nick it)

Literally a phone call even as late as half an hour before would help. Heard some horror stories from friends in the industry. I think quite a few places round here that normally take bookings stopped doing so this summer. But it's been so busy around here they could and know they'd fill tables anyway. Shit for customers who want to plan though. We've not been too affected by it. We don't take bookings for the restaurant and we have credit card details (or they've prepaid) for accommodation. There's been the occasional no show where they've blocked or cancelled the credit card but no more then usual and very low numbers

Not at Latitude they weren't. And I've quite enjoyed then when I've seen them before
